<p>wharton411- werent u the one who posted about penn calling ur GC and u being pretty sure you were accpeted?</p>
<p>no.</p>
<p>That was PennHunter</p>
<p>my bad - sorry</p>
<p>crouton- GPA and SATs are right about average (2180 SATs, 3.7-3.8 UW GPA w/ 8 APs, no ranking or weighting in my school). I just hope all those "oh we look at intangibles" statements are actually true because that would help me haha (first gen, immigrated in 02, run my own business, internships etc).</p>
<p>Blech, my mom keeps telling people about Penn when they ask what my plans are for next year, and it bothers me. Because I'm not going to get in. Grah.</p>
<p>Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>^ me too, yo. i hate when they ask, and i say im undecided, and my dad blows in with "ivy league blah blah blah". just shuttup, dude. wth are u gonna say when i get rejected??
ugh.
93.5 hrs</p>
<p>YOOOOO....thats exactly how it is with my dad....he keeps telling people i applied to Wharton...im like wat the eff....what if i end up at UofMD</p>
<p>My parents are kind of ignorant so I don't have that problem. I decided not to tell them that I find out on Thurs, although my brother knows.
And mahras, those stats are a whole lot better than mine.
Heres to Penn valuing personality.</p>
<p>my dad tells everyone yea she applied to penn, but i don't think she'll get in..then my mom goes yes she will...no she will not..yes she will...no she won't...</p>
<p>and they do this in front of me everyday. aarh.</p>
<p>my parents think im getting in. no matter what i throw at them regarding how bad i am as an applicant, theyre convinced ill get in. my mom says shed be suprised if i didnt. and it makes my stress worse...</p>
<p>My parents believe I will get in. How can mommy's "special little boy" get deferred/rejected?</p>
<p>wow that's the complete opposite of mine.</p>
<p>my parents were like.. yea you have no chance. But at least you tried right??</p>
<p>Thanks mom and dad. =(</p>
<p>lol ouch venus</p>
<p>my mom gets all "its up to god now" ... -<em>-
my dad wants me to be rejected so i can do pton rd ... -</em>- </p>
<p>no ones on my side!!!! =(</p>
<p>odin - post 29 - heres to hoping</p>
<p>and venus, my parents r similar. theyre like... "dont expect to get in cuz when you dont itll be less painful"</p>
<p>my dad was actualyl kinda understanding, he was like "at all of these top schools its really just up to chance, so dont expect nething special"</p>
<p>yea, theyre right</p>
<p>and then theres my gf whose like, "i hope you get in cuz everywhere else your applying is further away"... and i know im not gonna get in... ugh, tuff</p>
<p>i want to get in SOOOO bad. i thought i didnt... but now, i do more than nething</p>
<p>wow that's the complete opposite of mine.</p>
<p>my parents were like.. yea you have no chance. But at least you tried right??</p>
<p>Thanks mom and dad. =(
exact same here venus only my dad wants me to get rejected so he doesnt have to pay for it and my mom says "it will just be too much stress to be deffered"
by the way i should be studying for an ap chem and ap stat test that are tomorrow</p>
<p>paro omg same!! My dad's like I think you'll get accepted.. but part of me wants to see you deffered because then you can apply to Stanford!! Sigh... I really want Penn though.</p>
<p>my dad has a thing for yale... he thinks harvard's too stuck up, princeton's too elite, and yale's perfect. as to other colleges, i don't think he realizes they exist.</p>
